VW won't get a seat on Porsche's board


Posted by Joe Hitei on September 26th, 2007



Filed under: Etc., Porsche, VolkswagenThere's no record of Volkswagen actually asking for one, but in case they wanted a seat on Porsche's management board, Porsche has said, "Uh, nein." That's the word from Porsche Automobil CFO Holger Härter, who forms half of the management board. The other half is Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking. Nor will the company's charter and co-determination agreements be altered. He did, however, open the door to adding more members in the future. The worker's board will remain three Porsche and three Volkswagen reps, even should Porsche up its stake in Volkswagen to 51-percent. Porsche currently owns 31-percent, but if the European Court of Justice strikes down the so-called Volkswagen Law that limits a shareholder's voting stake, it will move to take control of Volkswagen.
